Expand the storage on your Windows system and back up photos, video, music, and documents using the silver 2TB My Passport Ultra USB 3.0 Type-C External Hard Drive from WD. This drive is equipped with 2TB of storage and a USB 3.0 Type-C interface. If your computer doesn’t have a USB Type-C port, an included USB Type-C to Type-A adapter helps ensure compatibility with older systems. This drive is also bus-powered, meaning that all its power is provided by the USB cable and no external power cables or adapters are required.
Since WD designed this My Passport Ultra drive for Windows, it comes preformatted NTFS for Windows 10, 8.1, and 7. If you happen to work across both Windows and Mac platforms, WD provides a downloadable NTFS driver for macOS, which enables the reading and writing of this My Passport Ultra drive without any reformatting. Or, make it fully Mac compatible with a simple reformat. Thanks to a 256-bit AES hardware encryption chip, your private files are kept more secure.

It work perfectly as a back up disk drive 🙂

Software was annoying, it’s a little hard to figure out how to password protect the hard drive, and the hard drive should have come with some kind of case/pouch. But it works fine. And the design is attractive.

We use drives like these regularly to hand-off files to clients. They are cost effective, widely available, and work on both windows and Mac OS.It is essential to keep track of the included USB cable in order to connect the drive.

Works great and good value. Installation unintuitive for Mac. Some procedures described online are incorrect. WD customer service by phone very helpful. Transfer via USB 2 seems slower than another brand of drive I have. Five stars anticipating no future glitches.

USB 3.0 makes it fast, it is very quiet, and it does not require an external power source. Add to it Western Digital reliability in a compact package and I don’t see how it could get much better. I use it to hold images and music files before archiving them. The included software even monitors the temperature of the drive for safe operation. Five stars!

I’m using this product to back up my laptop computer as well as to store almost 1TB of Elevation Church sermons to watch weekly while serving overseas for the next 12 years as a missionary doctor. It stores and retrieves quickly, no glitches. I like the red color, but the surface doesn’t have little ventilation holes as it appears in the photo, they’re just part of the finish. If that’s all I can find wrong, then it must be a pretty good product. I purchased a small red Case Logic holder for it which was a perfect fit.

We bought a few of these to keep our project workflow more organized for our video production company and they are perfect! They are fast, reliable and a great price. It’s pocket sized which makes it easy for travel. We plan on purchasing more of these portable hard drives for future video projects.

I have a 4TB WD, 4TB Seagate, and now this 5TB USB-C interfaced WD. I really needed that extra TB for my backup applications, and since I’m on a relatively new Mac Mini, I really wanted a USB-C interface. Drive worked like a charm. Already formatted for HFS+, I just plugged it in, told Time Machine to use it, and off it went. Also backed up a 2TB archive drive through the make with Disk Utility. Again, fast and no issues. And, as usual, B&H delivered promptly with no issues. I’m a happy customer!

Never worked attempted to reformat for Mac and the drive would not accept reformatting. It’s a piece of junk. I have a Mac formatted drive from the same manufacturer that worked without a problem. Btw. The return form on website is broken so you have speak with a person.

Though I’ve one WD external hard drive that has gone bad ( it’s 8 years old). I’ve never had an issue with WD. They’ve been very stable. I’m not expecting an issue with this one. The sale price is great ..!!!
